A.J. Hawk tackled a golf fan, who begged him to do it

Even golfing A.J. Hawk is a tackling machine.

It’s not uncommon for NFL players to try to unwind with a little golf during the off season, but it’s not so common to have golf fans begging to be tackled by said players.

A.J. Hawk of the Green Bay Packers was competing at the American Century Championship in Tahoe when a fan crossed the rope in his tank top begging to be laid out by the Pro Bowl linebacker. It’s a rare time where Happy Gilmore crosses into reality and we’re all for it.

Kudos to Hawk for even going 50 percent against some random dude. This isn’t a gentle shove, he actually tackled him.
